Hi everybody. I've noticed that on my Macbook Air, mid 2013 model, when ever I pull up an album in iTunes, move through the list of songs, and press Space to play the song I want, iTunes automatically plays the first song on the album, even if the song I want to hear is farther down the list. Tonight, when I tried to play track 5 on an album, it automatically played track 1, no matter what I did. I've got cursor tracking enabled, but no routing command seems to fix this problem. What's going on? Thanks,
Hi all. This happens randomly, so I can't know what causes it. I usually leave my Macbook pro in sleep, open it, do what I need then close it again. Sometimes, when I am on the password field, there is no speech. I try to turn off then back on voice over, no luck. The only thing that fixes this is to completely hard shut down, then restart. It's not an ideal fix, I know that. I just don't know why nine times out of ten, it works fine then once in awhile absolutely no speech. I can enter my password, and it looks as though the computer works, but no sound of any kind.
If there’s one thing I don’t like about Apple, it’s how they can absolutely screw things up. Use Apple Silicon once resetting a MacBook, or a desktop. You get taken to the thing where you have to, activate your Mac, which includes connecting a damn Internet cable or using wireless connection, Ironically, you can’t even access the option to connect to wireless network with that screan . Then you would need a USB-C to network adapter for MacBook laptop, so at the end of the day Apple just made it more difficult and complicated for Apple and Blind People. What’s you people thoughts
Hi all. I've really been trying to figure this out. When i'm on Safari, if I open a new page, on a site, as in I click a link, sometimes i'm taken to the top, other times i'm stuck in the "Window spots" element and maybe it wil let me open the roter maybe it won't. Also when I bring up form controls, if I know an element is there, as in this sites "Subject" and "comment" fields, all i'm brought to is the "Save button.
Hi all. For some reason, at random this behavior happens. It happens in Mail and also on safari sometimes. I'll be in the middle of the a page and the focus goes to the toolbar. On in Mail it will send me to the recovered messages folder. I'm using a Macbook pro M1 chip. I'm on 12.1 Has anyone had this happen?
I use the normal site to post content, photos etc. When I write a post I find that normal words suddenly select friends. My neighbor's apartment had her staircase ripped out, causing quite a bit of noise. As i wrote "jackhammer", it selected someone whom was on my friends' list. Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening? It's completely redicculous. Yes, I can use the mobile site, but I don't if i can help it, seeing as I use the normal site of any company whenever possible. Thanks all.
Hi All,
This is not a VoiceOver issue at all; my Mac is doing something annoying and I want to see if anyone else is having the same problem.
I have a 2011 MacBook Air running 10.9.2. When I wake my Mac from sleep, the Wifi status is "No signal." This happens no matter if I've physically moved the Mac around from network to network; it occurs both when I venture out and when the Mac is sitting at home. Turning Wifi on and off again does not resolve the problem; the only workaround I've found is to restart the mac.
Subject line says it all. My favorite bluetooth keyboard, as well as the Macbook Air keyboard, both lack numpads, and the numpad commander is just about the last tether that makes using a Mac at all tolerable from my perspective. Is anyone using a stand-alone bluetooth numpad this way? Wondering if pressing modifier keys on one keyboard plus numpad keys on a different keyboard works smoothly under VO. Thanks.

Hello all,
I will soon be the proud owner of a mac book pro. But I fear that I may have a problem. The one who's getting it for me lives in finland, and I'm not sure if the store there would be able to set the mac to English. if not, I'l have to do that when I get it, and since I don't know finish, it could get messy. Any suggestions?
Hello all,
I get this mysterious announcement from Voiceover about 4-5 times a day on my iMac running the latest Sierra. I find no window where I can type in my login/password. I asked my sighted wife to locate it for me and she sees no window. I have rebooted my Mac several times to no avail. It is getting on my nerves.
Any idea which app is generating this mysterious message or any way I can do some sleuthing myself? Thanks.
Hi
What is the most intuitive way of installing Windows 11 on an M1 MacBook?
I read there are various options like UTM, Parallel, VMWare etc, so which one is the best option for installing and using Windows 11?
Thanks for any help.
I hope you are all well. :)
I installed VMWare fusion yesterday and am now wondering how I install Windows into VMWare Fusion. Currently it is using the free trial.
I know I can use the OEM and I plan to get that from Amazon or any other website that is reasonable (because Microsoft only sells Windows 8 now and I am familiar with 7).
If anyone can explain to me the steps or direct me to a podcast/guide on here that would be great. I've seen information about VMWare Fusion but not what I am looking for specifically.
Thanks.
Christina
